733. Restoration of Freedom
Xiao Yan sat cross-legged alone in the room. He was not in quiet seclusion; his body was trembling and cold sweat was constantly pouring down his forehead.
His body was now in complete turmoil, with his once orderly battle qi now wildly mixed together.
The most important reason for this change is that Xiao Yan directly attacked the Dou Sheng power remaining in his body.
The power of the Spirit Clan's Dou Sheng was indeed formidable. Although it had been subdued, it still locked Xiao Yan's right hand. Xiao Yan knew that if he wanted revenge, he couldn't be impatient. He had to recover to his best condition, and right now, the most important thing was to remove this biggest obstacle as soon as possible.
At the very least, he needs to regain the freedom of his right hand, which still possesses the ability to devour and contains black flames, a very important part of Xiao Yan's current strength.
Xiao Yan had already planned how to deal with this portion of Dou Sheng power. Even if it was just a remnant of a Dou Sheng's furious attack, the amount of Dou Qi contained within it was unimaginable to ordinary people. After all, the gap between Dou Zun and Dou Sheng was incomparable to any other level.
Given time, the strange fire would eventually be able to process this power, and eventually even absorb it bit by bit. Aside from its domineering and sharp nature, this power was no different from a high-grade pill. However, Xiao Yan couldn't wait any longer; he needed the power, and every second counted!
Xiao Yan had a premonition of the pain involved in forcibly expelling this power, but now the thought of revenge suppressed everything, and Xiao Yan did not hesitate for a moment.
Now, Xiao Yan endured the pain and tried again to deal with the Dou Sheng power. Under the precise control of his vast soul power, Xiao Yan mobilized almost all of his massive Dou Qi, carefully controlling the Dou Sheng power at its center, even though any power that approached would be pierced through by this force. Xiao Yan's Dou Qi solidity was definitely among the best of the Dou Zun, but now he had almost no ability to resist.
This task was extremely difficult and troublesome, but Xiao Yan was still doing his best to move. At the same time, Xiao Yan's arm had turned blackish-red, all his meridians suddenly swelled, and his blood flow accelerated sharply.
As the fighting spirit moved, the skin and flesh on Xiao Yan's right hand were gradually torn apart. Xiao Yan could clearly feel his arm being cut by countless small knives at the same time.
Xiao Yan's heart suddenly raced, accompanied by pain, and sweat dripped continuously from his forehead. However, Xiao Yan gritted his teeth, showing no sign of wavering, because he knew very well that if this task wasn't completed in one go, the consequences could become even more complicated. And similarly, he no longer had any extra time to deal with these matters.
As time passed, Xiao Yan's flesh and blood were directly torn apart at the front end of the area where the Dou Sheng power was located. At this moment, Xiao Yan could even see the Dou Sheng power trapped in his flesh and blood with his naked eyes, and his Dou Qi was constantly wrestling with it. Although that power did not have any intelligence, it wanted to stick firmly into Xiao Yan's flesh and blood, and did not want to be pushed away by Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan stared at it, a fierce glint resurfacing in his eyes. He clenched his left hand tightly, grasping its power with his own palm. The powerful, sharp Dou Qi pierced through Xiao Yan's hand, leaving hollow holes. Xiao Yan's physical attributes were probably no weaker than those of an ordinary eighth-tier magical beast, but he still appeared fragile before the power of a Dou Sheng.
Xiao Yan did not react excessively to this. The purplish-red flames continued to burn on his palm, and his strength suddenly increased again.
scoff-
Under the combined influence of the forces inside and outside his body, and amidst the tearing sounds of Xiao Yan's flesh and blood, Xiao Yan forcefully pulled out this force!
At the same moment the power left his body, Xiao Yan felt a sensation of returning to his body through his right hand. Simultaneously, black flames roared forth from his arm, transforming into a constantly rotating miniature black hole vortex.
The moment this devouring power appeared, it immediately took control of the situation. The Dou Sheng power, which hadn't yet made any moves, was directly locked by the black hole vortex and then pulled into the vortex to be completely devoured.
The moment the Dou Sheng's power was absorbed, the intense Dou Qi pressure in the room also disappeared.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
After gaining his freedom, Xiao Yan also experienced a long-awaited sense of relief. The sudden attack of the Black Flame was somewhat unexpected. He knew that if this Dou Sheng power were simply dispersed, the Xiao family wouldn't be able to handle it, so he planned to deal with it himself. However, to his surprise, the Black Flame seemed to sense his call and directly absorbed the power.
"Come!"
With a flick of his right hand, Xiao Yan summoned the black flames, which obediently came into his hand and even gave him a sense of closeness, like a docile little beast in his palm.
This was an unprecedented sight. Ever since Xiao Yan subdued Black Flame at the Pill Gathering, Black Flame had always been unruly and disobedient, only half-obeying his commands. Where had it ever shown such docility before?
"Could it be that the black flames were also absorbed by the Burning Technique?" This thought suddenly popped into Xiao Yan's mind.
Xiao Yan had no idea what happened when his body was completely shattered by the Dou Sheng's attack. His right arm was then completely suppressed by the Dou Sheng's power. It was indeed the first time he had communicated with Black Flame in three years.
After sensing for a long time, Xiao Yan didn't get any useful information. He could only confirm that Black Flame was indeed different from before, which was a good thing for him. After all, with Black Flame's help, Xiao Yan's chances of getting revenge would greatly increase.
Then, it seemed that the black flames had finished digesting the power of the Dou Sheng, and a stream of pure, liquid-like Dou Qi power directly entered Xiao Yan's body from the black flames. Xiao Yan touched it slightly and found that there was no obstruction at all.
"This is?"
After careful observation, Xiao Yan discovered that this level of pure Dou Qi was almost at the point where he could directly absorb it. Such flawless Dou Qi—if Xiao Yan didn't know how to absorb it, it would be a complete waste!
Not to be missed!
Xiao Yan didn't stand on ceremony and immediately closed his eyes. He was currently at the eight-star Dou Zun level. The power delivered by the black flames was incredibly pure and substantial. He had already sensed the opportunity to break through to the nine-star Dou Zun level from these liquids.
Now that the opportunity is in front of us, we should act without delay!
I need strength now, more than ever before!
